Description
New for 2026 is a 200km event taking inspiration from the Goats Head Soup 160km, taking you to Nunney Castle & King Alfred's Tower via the Bristol to Bath cycle path before getting you back on the traditional GHS route from the top of the Mendips.
As you follow the GHS route, you will enjoy the Mendips Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.' Then, next, head south for a well-earned stop at Sweets (cycling) Cafe.
Across the Somerset levels and then follow the back roads to Bristol before a final stretch along the B2B cycle path back to Warmley Waiting Rooms for well-earned free refreshments. (Post 5 pm finishers only).
Two Tunnels Circular Event Patch available for purchase at £2.50
